Olivia Munn is Blazing Hot on 'Popular Mechanics' February 2015 Cover

On her character in Mortdecai: “My character has a very strange mustache fetish, so that can derail things sometimes. There’s definitely a scene with a horse.”

On her childhood with her brothers: “My sisters were always doing makeup and curlers, and I wasn’t interested in that. As early as I can remember, when we’d all be kicked outside for the summer, my brothers and I would make a huge fort and string out the electricity from inside and build an air-conditioning unit. In the winter we built igloos. We made them so perfect that we’d be sweating inside. For fun, occasionally we’d decide to do something like make our own batteries out of pennies. We’d just create.”

On doing her own stunts in Mortdecai: “I grew up doing karate and gymnastics and everything, so there’s a part of me that likes the challenge. Later I had to ride in on this horse at full gallop through a very narrow path and trees coming up over us and land literally on a dime and jump off the horse.”
